Museum stuff;)

On December 3rd our GD class went on a field trip to this museum at JCCC.  It was cool, I enjoyed it thoroughly.  It brought me great joy!
Well my favorite was a work in the up and down collection in the Nerman museum.
                                     

OriginalFake – KAWS Companion (Resting Place)

I liked all of Kaws' collection but this one was my favorite.  It just contrasts so perfectly. Especially with the black against the bright neon colors of it's intestines.  
It uses good line and form. if you look at the innards, you can see that the artist really uses great details.
The Art appears almost heavy because i can feel the sadness/ depression of the work.  The yellow eye appears to be piercing and sorrowful.

"They loved your GPA, then they saw your tweets"- Feedback!;)

Soooo......
The gist of the article is basically talking about the "the online scrutiny" by colleges and it's effect it on high school applicants. The article comes off as "chilling", because it makes the application process more tense than it already is.
In my opinion, Colleges have a right to look a their applicant's social media page.  I don't think there is a problem because every other person can see their PUBLIC profile.  That applicant should create an image that they're not embarrassed to show a college.
So, you know, if your digital image isn't appropriate.... then you should scrub it.

Good luck!!!!!!
